WILLIAM WALDORF AsTOR sat on Mr..
Roosevelt's coach, during the great coach
ing club parade, says a New York CORE
spOudent of the San Francisco Ar0OnaWt,
with a loose and not particularly well
fitting coat wrapped around his athletic
figure, and his hat pulled down over his
eyes. Here is a man who made a brisk
canvass as a politician, served well as min
lister to Italy, models admirably in clay,
has written a good book, is now writing a
play, manages an estate of 5000, DOC, 600
~skillfully, and is the virtual head of what
undoubtedly ranks as the first family in
America. He Is clever, brilliant, well
born, and has had every advantage that
boundless wealth could buy. He can box
like a professional, has broad shoulders,
and apparently never thinks of his attire.
His father calls him Bill" On every
coach that day there were prim, tightly
clad, supercilious and over dressed young
men, sitting erect and staring with affected
Indifference at the vulgar herd that surged
below them. Undoubtedly they felt like
~aristocrats, or tried to, but they looked
like a lot of ~tailurs' clerks. The only man
among them who was absolutely indiffer-
ent to his surroundings and his position
was William Waldorf Astor.

The olives are placed between two
mill stones and ground into Il paste,
stones and all. This paste is put into
jute bags, which are piled up in an ordi-
nary press and subjected to pressure fur
nished by a screw. The oil oozes through
the bags, and is caught in pans or yes
sells, and then bottled. The most re-
markable feature of the process is that
some four or five different qualities are
obtained from one lot of olives. This is
explained by the fact that the oil oozing
out ut first is the result only of slight
pressure, consequently is sweeter and
lacks the ranker flavor of the second,
third, and fourth grades, which partake
more or less of the olive stones. The
last grade is frequently so rank that it
cannot be used for eating purposes. but
instead is used as the basic matter in the
manufacture of soap, etc. The residue
or paste left after the oil has been ex-
tracted undergoes chemical treatment,
and the oil obtained from this is used as

How does the runner train? That is q
question whose answer branches out in
half a dozen directions. Given fairly
good health, strong constitution and an
ordinary pair of legs, the youth who
burns for fame on the cinder path must
jog two or three miles a day for two or
three months to acquire ''bottom." That
is, to build up and strengthen the mus
Giles in foot, calf, thigh and loins needed
to carry him through his races. In the
meantime he will have lived plainly and
abstemiously, avoiding spirituous liquor
and tobacco, getting plentiful and regu-
lar sleep and exercising six days a week.
1t pays to rest n day in seven. Why
nus he avoid tobacco? Only because it
parches his throat, impairs, no matter
how slightly, his breathing powers and
helps to put his nerves in such condition
that he is easily ''rattled. New York

DR.. CASE.

The long expected event has matured at
last and the Rev. DR.. McGlynn, Of New
York, is formally accommodated from
the church of Rome. Taken all in all, it
is a sad climax to a useful career. A man
of erudition, brilliant linguistic accom-
plishments, a powerful sand eloquent
preacher, DIR. McGlynn vet gave up the
best years of his life to humble and unset
fish labors among the very poorest classes
of his great congregation. The following
which he has had and the enthusiasm
with which he was upheld in the face of
high ecclesiastical censure, is OF itself
strong evidence of the hold he had on the
hearts of the people.
There has been no event since the un-
frocking of Pere Hyacinthe that has at
tracted the same widespread attention as
the case of DIR. McGlynn. Columns
after columns have been devoted to it
daily by the newspaper press of the coun-
try and judgments passed upon it from
every conceivable standpoint. The ques-
ton, however, resolves itself into a simple
consideration of whether DR.. McGlYnn
has disobeyed the rules of his church or
ganization. The highest authority de
cides hat he has. Whether as an Amer
lean citizen he should have the right to
publicly express opinions on temporal
matters is an outside issue. If the
ecclesiastical authorities decide that
he has not, and he still concludes
to remain in the church, he must keep
silence; if he wishes to talk he must
u loose from the church. These are the
two horns OF the dilemma. He must &c.
cept either the one or the other.
While the majority of American citizens
have little sympathy with the land
theories which DR., McGlynn has learned
from Henry George, they have . great
deal OF sympathy for DR.. McGlynn in
dIvidually, in so far as he represents the
cardinal principle Of tree speech.
II what are now generally considered
vaporous theories regarding the ownership
of land should withstand the test of time,
then DIR. McGlynn will continue to figure
more or less c~onspicuously as an apostle
of the new'crusade. II they should not,
and we believe they will not, poor DR..
McGlynn will flourish his little day and
then sink ingloriously into the yawning
sea of forgetfulness.

The fate of A. T. Stewart 5 remains so
alarmed the friends of the late William
II. Vanderbilt that a guard is still kept
posted about his $500, 600 tomb. Night
and day a body of well drilled, we'll
armed men move about in its vicinity on
the lookout for pillagers or ghouls. In
addition to these, a system of signals or
burglar alarms is added, which penetrate
many parts OF the grounds. At stated
intervals these are set off by a man on
his six hours turn of duty, and the re-
serve rapidly assemblies at a given point.
At night the watch is even more v%igilant.
At sunset a powerful flame is lighted in
the cupola, which shines out over the
humble graveyard below and off upon
the waters. Into this dome one OF the
detectives must 90 every half hour and
touch another alarm, which records the
fidelity of those on watch. Every twelve
hours the chief enters the building to see
duty during the night has gone his rounds
at the prescribed moment The cost of
guarding the remains amounts to a small
fortune each year, and it cannot but occa-
sion some melancholy reflections in the
man who knows that just a little distance
beyond this pompous mausoleum lie the
remains of Commodore Vanderbilt him
self, without guard or honor, so far as the
eye can see, except a single stone bearing
his name.
